Re: All carbed out need help
Bring her on out some more. Qjets aren't limited to just 2 turns, thats just a start point. I have seen them start running good at 3. Get a vac guage, hook it to manifold vac and adjust screws to highest vac.

Re: All carbed out need help
If it won't stay running at 2 turns look for a vacuum leak, Did you re-install the carb with a new base gasket ?
